495. Rejoice, Ye Pure in Heart

1 Rejoice, ye pure in heart,
Rejoice, give thanks, and sing;
Your glorious banner wave on high,
The cross of Christ your King.

Refrain:
Rejoice, rejoice,
Rejoice, give thanks and sing.

2 Bright youth and snow-crowned age,
Strong men and maidens fair;
Raise high your free, exulting song,
God's wondrous praise declare. [Refrain]

3 Yes, on through life's long path,
Still chanting as ye go;
From youth to age, by night and day,
In gladness and in woe. [Refrain]

4 Still lift your standard high,
Still march in firm array
As warriors thro' the darkness toil
Till dawns the golden day. [Refrain]

AMEN.
